This is a little monkey/ape character from a cartoon i saw on tv a long while ago, it was on Fox Kids during the 2000's and it was about two kids and the monkey/ape character was their sidekick who always played pranks.

I am having the same issue as everyone else. I too was largely looking forward to playing Draw Something with my friends seeing as I can't afford a phone that requires a data plan, so this is my only option at the moment!
